New hisense 4Serise-40 tv has atrocious input lag and game mode stutters like crazy

The new hisense 4Serise-40 tv I just bought has some of the worst input lag I have ever seen on a tv and when I put game mode on it stutters every 3-5 seconds. 

 

It is version 11.50.5 build 4846

I heard there was a 12.0 update but my tv says it's up to date.

 

Does anyone have a solution to this?

I bought it pretty much just to game with.

  • I have the same problem on my 65in Hisense, except it was working fine and in the last week when using the Roku app and Bluetooth headphones it stutters allot when on YouTube only, everything else works well.  I get no stuttering when the headphones aren't connected. Let me know if anyone figures this out please.

      Hi this did not fix my issue.  Game mode is hard lagging and no game mode has serious input lag

      This worked. I had a sound bar plugged up and after unplugging it the lag went away

      Hi, I'm replying to let everyone know that the game mode stutter bug on Hisense 4Series-40 (40H4030F4) has been fixed with the latest software version: 12.5.0, build 4179.

      I got my tv updated yesterday and the option for "game mode" is gone.

      However, there is no input lag, and the stuttering bug is finally fixed!

        It is not fixed for me. I am on 12.5.0 and there is still intense input lag on my gaming input. I can't play any games because of the intense lag making it unbearable competitively. What do I do now that I don't even have the option for game mode.
